ST. LOUIS, Jan. 2O.-It is given out
here on what Is alleged to be high au-
thority that Jay Gould stands behind the
projected Kansas, Nebraska & Dakota
railroad, or what Is better known as
Colonel Bush's great north and south
lins, which is designed to connect the coal
fields Of Dakota with New Orleans, and
that he now owns the controlling interest
in the enterprise and intends to make iG
the biggest project OF his life. 100 miles
of the road ara now In sctiVe oper-
alton, and the greater part Of the
right OF way has been pro.
vided for by the recent pur-
chase by Gould of the Little Rock,
TT. Smith & Mississippi road in Arkansas
il said to have been for the purpose Of
making 1t link In the great line and the
present plan Is to strike Natchez, Missis-
sippi, but this scheme may be changed
after Gould's present tour Of inspection.
From what IL known, the New Orleans,
Natcht & Ft. Scott railroad is . part of
the plan, and the Kansas, Nebraska &
Dakota will be extended southwark to
Fl. Smith and thus make the connection.

City OmcIaIs PerJure Themselves In the
Quo WArrantO PrOceedHngs-DId Not
Know the Saloons Were Open.
LEAVENwoRTH. Jan. IA rupture
occurred in the city government here on
account of the resignation to-day Of City
Clerk William Shepherd. 1t is stated
that the quo warranto proceedings
against the city officers instituted by At
torney General Bradford to remove from
once for receiving license for the He
gal sale OF liquor from the saloons Of this
city Ia the cause of Shepherds resi9n0-
whisky men are badly scared.
The state completed Its examination OF
witnesses before Commissioner Hunter,
appointed by the supreme court, to take
evidence in the quo WarrAnto case
brought against the city officials TO re-
strain them from collecting q monthly
lemonade license from saloon keepers.
The defense will introduce their testi-
mony Tomorrow. The mayor and every
city official but one have eYaded direct
questions, and upon oath stated they do
nos know that saloons are open here
daily selling intoxicating Hauor
contrary to the prohibitOry law. The
state has, however, proved this fact
oonClusively by the best citizens Of the
city. The LeavenWorth Times, in re-
viewing the evidence Of the city officials
as taken by the commissioner, viii say
editorially tomorrow morning: "The
evidence proves beyond question that the
lemonade ordinance was passed for no
other purpose than to defeat the intent of
the prOhibitOry law, q mere suDterfuge
by which saloon keepers might sell in
toxicAting liquors and 1t the same time
secure protection from the council. When
Mayor Nicely testified under oath that he
did not know the above to be fact he
deliberately committed perjury, and
every other witness who testified as he
did is guilty Of the same crime. Such
crimes, however, 60 hand In hand with
the whiskey traffic. By reason Of de-
bSuchery and association with these
saloon defenders, they soon become so
depraved, so degraded and so utterly
lost to all that Is decent and respectable
that they will even purjure themselves
and stand before God and man as self
confessed liare In order that they may
protect the whiskey traffic and Its blear-
eyed advocates.

rate of 35 cents Der hour. Other branches
Of building trades are being reorgAnIzed
as fast as possible. They will probably
follow the example of the carpenters in Q

all of the building trades Of the city will
be concentrated and organized into a
